Ophthalmic Surgery

What is an Ambulatory Surgery Center?

Ambulatory Surgery Centers (ASCs) are facilities dedicated to providing same-day surgical care that was previously only offered in a hospital setting. At The Eye Surgery Center, we are committed to delivering an outstanding patient experience by focusing on top-notch clinical care, convenience, and cost efficiency. Patients who are scheduled for surgery at our ASC arrive on the day of their procedure to convenient, handicap accessible parking, have their surgery in a fully equipped operating room, and recover with the support of experienced nurses—all without requiring a traditional hospital stay.

The Eye Surgery Center & Medicare Cost Savings

ASCs (The Eye Surgery Center) continue to offer substantial savings to the Medicare program. Much of the program savings is attributable to a stable group of high-volume procedures, namely cataract surgery. On average, Medicare pays ASCs one-half of hospital outpatient department (HOPD) rates for the same procedures, meaning that every time a procedure for a Medicare beneficiary is performed in an ASC instead of an HOPD, the Medicare program saves money. Annual savings due to procedures performed in ASCs rather than HOPDs are estimated at about $7 billion per year.
